BZM Pick - Big Dog, Little Dog

Book: Big Dog, Little Dog Author: P.D Eastman

This book has been a part of Tale in a Mail February Pack, but it was a part of our family since Z turned 2.

Why I picked it and what was my Reaction: Z loved Eastman's 'Are you my mother?' and I picked the book up instantly. Another reason why I picked this book up was because I wanted to introduce Z to the concept of friendship and found it apt. Besides friendship it also introduces children to the concept of opposites.

The Toddler's take: Z loved the book from the word go. Now it is an integral part of her library and she calls it her 'Fizzy-Zoe book' because it is about friends and her dad is her best friend. She laughs through the book and it is one of the few books she prefers reading with Fizz.

What it is about: It is a simple, yet amazing book about two completely different dogs who are as different as chalk and cheese but still these are best of friends.

How We Read it: We read it without many gimmicks because the book in itself is a brilliant read. Lots of colours, funny situations and friends.

Age Group: 2.5 years+

If you believe I'm a good judge of books pick this one right away... if you haven't got it as a part of Tale in a Mail
